Time for some workshop fun! πŸ€—

If you liked the look of the reusable make-up pads from the previous post, here's your chance to learn how to make them! Details and dates on poster below.

This is a one session workshop, your pick between two dates, and the cost includes the handout, a suitable crochet hook and a ball of luxurious organic cotton yarn in the colour of your choice!

As always, email [email protected] to register (first come - first serve) and for more info.

And if you are wondering if these make-up pads actually work, here's the reaction I got from my friend Emily 🀩:
------------------------
"Wow - used my birthday pressie last night (initially felt like sacrilege putting all that grubby make up near the beautiful handmade little pad!) and my face has never felt cleaner! The texture of the 'right' side cleans and massages, and then the underside is smooth and seems to polish the skin. Thank you so much - I got lost in cleaning my face - so luxurious!!!"

Here with a small fabric basket (yes, handmade, too), Manuka honey facial wash from the flower shop in town, and I'll add a small laundry bag to wash them in.

Let me know if you're interested in learning how to, and I'll put an impromptu workshop together. One night/morning, all materials supplied. πŸ’›

Today I can finally proudly announce that a My Sock Central Starter Pack is part of this month's beautiful The Lana Box! πŸ€—

Yes, that means that my little cards are venturing out to sock knitters in the big wide world - in this case Spain! πŸ‡ͺπŸ‡Έ

The Lana Box is a monthly yarn subscription box featuring high quality yarn, a beautiful pattern and some lovely notions.

Lorena also has a shop on her website www.thelanabox.com with loads of yarn and gorgeous accessories, including My Sock Central, of course. πŸ‘Œ

In case any of you need some yarn inspiration - here goes:

Last weekend I spent at KAN (Knit August Nights) in Napier. A fabulous knitting retreat with workshops, yarny shopping and loads of hanging out with fellow yarnies (more about this later). Bliss! 🀩

Amongst other things I bought this beautiful stash of Knitsch Yarns to knit myself a Sipila Sweater. What can I say - this is magic stuff! πŸ’« The swatch came out beautiful after blocking. It's like liquid in your hands!

This is 100% merino high twist sock yarn, but who says you have to knit socks with it?! I now wish I could knit on this sweater 24/7!
And because it says sock yarn, a few skeins for sock snuck into my bag as well - oopsies. πŸ€·β€β™€οΈπŸ˜†
